Here are some of the issues that area residents are discussing. The statements were phoned in anonymously, so the Courier does not vouch for their veracity, nor do we know what motivated the callers:

To the person who is complaining about the sheriff with his two years: If you would get out there and try to help the sheriff and the community, it would help prosper everybody. Stevie Sikes has done a wondrous job.

All the Long County Commissioners should resign except Andy. Andy cares about what goes on in the county. The rest of them are just there for the title of commissioner; they have no knowledge of what’s going on in the county except for what they want.

We’d like to have a new football coach and athletic director at Bradwell Institute. Someone who would be a good role model for our students and kids.

I didn’t want to bother anybody, but is there any way the Coastal Courier could run an article about St. Patrick, and explain different things about him? I’ve heard bits and pieces, but I would like to be able to read about it.

I just needed to know: Where do you drop off your shoes for the Soles for Souls campaign? What street and building? I have lots of shoes that need to go — I would love to contribute.

HOW TO PACIFY AN IRATE CALLER

“I am so sick of hearing and reading about Chick-fil-A opening on Sunday. This family is a Christian family and no Chick-fil-A has ever been open on Sunday. There are many other restaurants open on Sundays.”

“Thank you, former county Commissioner John McIver and city Councilman Chris Stacy for looking out for the people of Riceboro. There are many residents there who have died of cancer recently and no one else is caring for the people.”

“I glad we got a new chief, Kirkendall. I don’t know what he’s done, but I’m going to give him a chance.”

“Why won’t the sheriff’s department do anything about the four-wheelers screaming up and down the roads in Woodland Lakes and Lake George? And the BOA in Lake George won’t do anything either.”

“My God, American people, we are patriots by nature. How in the world could we have allowed so many Russians to be connected to a campaign for president? That’s not patriotic.”

“The worst neighbor in Rye Patch lets his dog run free and poop on others’ property. He’s too cheap to buy trash bags so his trash blows onto others’ property. And he’s just an annoying jerk.”

“Thank you, Niki Seale for writing a sensible letter to the editor in the April 4. I full support your views.”

“Sadly, being white and raised in Liberty County, I never really understood the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. But today, marking the 50th anniversary of his assassination, I realize that has changed over the last year and a half. I enjoyed all the articles in the Coastal Courier. And I think his significance is ever more important than ever.”
